I have a backstage in Datang
Page 236
Talking, looking out of the window again, leisurely said: "If I can't figure out his identity, it means that I am inferior to him. He can put people around me, and he can even enter my house without any obstacles, but I I don't know his situation at all, this is a kind of failure for me that has already fallen into a disadvantage before the transaction..."
Qin Ji was slightly startled, and subconsciously said: "You actually guessed that he was going to make a deal with you."
Yuan Gai Suwen laughed, and said boldly: "As the most powerful official in Goguryeo, I am in charge of both military and political power and court power. If ordinary people come to see me, it may be seen as trying to curry favor with me, but you The new owner is obviously extraordinary, and a person like him will only do business when he comes to me."
After a slight pause, he said in a confident tone: "And it's an equal-level transaction."
Unexpectedly, Qin Ji sighed this time, shook her head lightly and said: "General Yuan Gai, I'm afraid your thinking is too simple. Indeed, my master wants to make a deal with you. However, he is definitely not You do deals on an equal scale..."
The woman looked at Yuan Gai Suwen as she spoke, her tone became extremely solemn, and she said softly: "Compared with him, you are far behind. So, you have to be at a disadvantage when trading...or the slave family should In other words, when you trade with him, you will belong to the vassal party. And what you think of as a deal is not actually a deal, but a reality that you have to accept..."
Yuan Gai Suwen's expression changed obviously.
The man turned around suddenly and stared straight at Qin Ji, as if he wanted to see whether Qin Ji was bragging or threatening him in an exaggerated way.
After a long time, he suddenly took a deep breath and said word by word: "I seem to have guessed who he is."
Qin Ji has been serving him all year round, so she was not surprised by his wisdom. On the contrary, she smiled again and said quietly: "The general is worthy of being a powerful minister of a generation, and he can see everything through clues."
With his hands behind his back, Yuan Gai Su Wen suddenly raised his feet and walked to the door.
But he didn't raise his hand to push the door, but hesitation appeared on his face, and after hesitating for a moment, he slowly said: "If my guess is correct, I'm afraid your master is in the courtyard outside the study door." Let's go..."
Before Qin Ji could reply, she first clicked her tongue in admiration, and said in a respectful tone: "It's really amazing, it's like entering a land without people, I think my Yuangai family is one of the five noble families of Goguryeo, the owner of the family mansion. The guards are no different than the palace, but he has already entered."
Qin Ji walked slowly to his side, her voice was soft and she didn't look like a betrayer, and her words were full of respect, she asked softly, "Has the general made up his mind? Can I open the door?"
These words confirmed Yuan Gai Suwen's guess just now, as expected her new owner is really outside the door of this study.
Yuan Gai Suwen seemed to have made up his mind suddenly, and suddenly turned around and walked back behind his desk.
He sat down slowly, with a face as calm as water, first he straightened his clothes solemnly, then took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice: "A friend is coming from afar, and we will meet each other on the couch, Miss Qin Ji, please open the door... ..."
Qin Ji respectfully agreed, and took advantage of the opportunity to push open the door of the study.
At the moment when the door opened, Gu Tianya's hearty laughter sounded outside the door, and he said leisurely: "The most important thing in life is your confidant, and I hope that your confidant will be in Liaodong. I just stayed outside the door for a long time, fearing that the general would not open the door. See you, fortunately, the door is open..."
Amidst the laughter, he stepped into the door, bowed his hands slightly, and said with a face like a spring breeze: "General Yuan Gai Suwen, next is Gu Tianya. Presumably, with the general's wisdom and sensitivity, he has already guessed the identity of this humble man."
At the same time, Yuan Gai Suwen had already stood up from the chair, bowed his hands in the same way, and said in a solemn tone: "As Lord Gu said, this general guessed it was you."
He paused slightly while talking, and then said: "I have imagined many kinds of meeting scenarios, and I know that we will definitely meet each other, but when we actually meet, it is still beyond my surprise. I really didn't expect it. , Lord Gu came here uninvited..."
He paused again while speaking, and said again with a deep meaning: "Not only did he come uninvited, but he also entered the room directly."
These words are full of profound meaning.
The first is to accuse Gu Tianya of being rude, and the second is to express his displeasure, but the final meaning is very cryptic, he is secretly telling Gu Tianya that this is his territory.
Since it's on his territory, he can turn his back on him at any time.
As expected of a generation of powerful ministers, the verbal battle has already begun before the exchange.
It's a pity that he chose the wrong partner for the fight.
But seeing Gu Tianya pacing slowly with his hands behind his back, he walked straight to his desk before stopping, and then said lightly: "Standing is not suitable for talking."
Yuan Gai Suwen was obviously taken aback, subconsciously opened his mouth to ask a question, and said in a little astonishment: "What do you mean by your words..."
Unexpectedly, at this moment, he suddenly saw a figure in the study move, and it was the house slave Xiangtong who had never made any movement from the beginning to the end, and even lifted up a chair and walked forward directly.
Yuan Gai Suwen's pupils shrank suddenly.
The eyes are full of incredible brilliance.
He stared blankly at the scene in front of him, watching his Xiangtong bring the chair over, put it lightly behind Gu Tianya first, then bent down and wiped it carefully with his sleeve, obviously the chair was extremely clean, but Xiangtong wiped it. The action is so careful.
Then, he heard Xiangtong's respectful voice, and said: "Since you said standing is not suitable for talking, the villain will move you a chair and sit down to talk."
While speaking, he stood with his hands tied, that respectful look and attitude clearly meant to be by Gu Tianya's side.
Gu Tianya sat down with a smile on his face.
Yuan Gai Su Wen took a deep breath.
After a long time, he seemed to have regained his senses, and suddenly let out a wry smile, and said somewhat self-deprecatingly: "When Qin Ji revealed her identity earlier, I was already shocked enough, but I couldn't believe it , I actually saw Xiangtong revealing his identity..."
Just now Gu Tianya just said, "Standing is not suitable for talking", his Xiangtong immediately moved the chair and wiped it carefully. This action alone immediately made Yuan Gai Su Wenming realize everything. It turned out that it was not just Qin Ji who became Gu Tianya. Even Xiangtong became Gu Tianya's person.
There was obviously a hint of puzzlement in his eyes, and there was a vague shock that was well concealed. He smiled wryly again, and said even more self-deprecatingly: "There are only two waiters in my study. I didn't expect that these two waiters would all become you." people."
Gu Tianya smiled slightly, but he didn't show any complacency, he just said flatly: "Maybe this is called a good bird chooses a tree to live in."
Looking directly at Yuan Gai Suwen while speaking, he said with deep meaning: "The waiter knows how to choose a tree to live in, will your Excellency, the Goguryeo general, make a choice?"
This is straight-forward to open everything up.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Gai Suwen didn't answer, but looked at Qin Ji and Xiangtong with interest, and asked suddenly: "I'm really curious, why they became your people."
As he spoke, his eyes fell on Qin Ji first, and he said, "Qin Ji, you should speak first."
This is obviously another way of fighting for the front, obviously he has no intention of admitting defeat yet.
For example, when Gu Tianya entered the door just now, he said that the way they met surprised him. On the surface, he seemed to be admiring Gu Tianya's ability to enter his mansion directly without permission, but he added the phrase "entering the house" behind, The intention was to warn Gu Tianya that he had entered his dominant territory.
It's a pity that Gu Tianya said lightly, "Standing is not suitable for talking", Xiangtong immediately revealed his identity by moving a chair to serve.The method of counterattack is self-explanatory, which means that your territory is all mine.
So Yuan Gai Suwen lost the first confrontation just now.
But he did not intend to concede defeat, but started the second battle.
The battle between wise men has deep meaning in every move. The reason why he suddenly expressed his curiosity about why Qin Ji and Xiangtong betrayed, and asked Qin Ji to explain the reason for their betrayal, was a means. He used a A commanding tone.
What we are fighting for is strength and initiative.
It's a pity that Qin Ji didn't answer, but first bowed to Gu Tianya, and then asked respectfully, softly: "Sir, will you allow me to answer General Yuan Gai's question?"
With just this sentence, Yuan Gai Suwen sighed immediately, he knew that he had lost again.
Qin Ji refused to answer his question directly, but first asked Gu Tianya for permission. This was a soft counterattack attitude, telling him who was the stronger side.
Sure enough, Gu Tianya smiled warmly, and said in a deep tone: "Since General Yuan Gai is curious, then you should tell him the reason."
Only then did Qin Ji look at Yuan Gai Suwen.
Yuan Gai Suwen sighed again, and said a little disappointed: "It's meaningless to say it or not. In fact, Lord Gu and I both know it well. The question I asked is just a kind of rivalry. But Because of your performance, Qin Ji, I already lost another game."
He smiled abruptly as he spoke, his tone turned into an admiration, and he said: "Qin Ji, Qin Ji, I really didn't expect that you are actually more intelligent than what I knew before. Unfortunately, I knew it too late."
Qin Ji smiled sweetly, still being very respectful to him, and asked softly: "Then, do you still want to listen to my answer, General?"
Yuan Gai Suwen didn't sit back in the chair slowly until this time, but his eyes did not look at Qin Ji, but looked at Gu Tianya's level, and his tone had returned to calm, and said: "Since Lord Gu has allowed you to answer, then What's the harm in listening to your answer? I really want to understand why my two most trusted waiters chose someone else..."
After saying these words, Fang Cai looked at Qin Ji and asked meaningfully: "Is it lured by interests?"
Qin Ji shook her head slightly, and said softly: "You should know that Qin Ji is not someone who is greedy for money."
This made Yuan Gai Suwen nodded, and said in agreement: "You are indeed not that kind of woman, otherwise you would not be in my eyes. There are hundreds of maids in my mansion, but you are the only one who can enter the study The qualification to play the piano for me. This is not only my appreciation for your character, but also a manifestation of your own noble character..."
Qin Ji seemed to be a little grateful, she bowed her knees and saluted slightly: "Outsiders say that the general is tyrannical and cruel, and will often use killing methods to mutilate his beloved, but Qin Ji knows that you are a good gentleman."
Chapter 353 [Betrayal, it turns out to be so simple]
"Want to be a commoner? Want to be a commoner? Could it be that the reason you chose to betray me is simply to be a commoner?"
Yuan Gai Suwen's expression was serious, obviously it was difficult for his level to understand the sorrow of a small person.
He stared straight at Qin Ji, and after a long time, he slowly opened his mouth, and said solemnly: "If it's just for this reason, you can tell me clearly, maybe in the eyes of others, I, Yuan Gai Suwen, is a cold-blooded Ruthless person, but you have been serving me in my study for so long, you should know that I am not that cold person..."
He paused while talking, and then said in a deep voice, "For example, if you wish to become a commoner, as long as you ask me, it will definitely be granted."
This seems to be justified.
Qin Ji did indeed nod her head in approval.
But after Qin Ji nodded, she suddenly shook her head again, and said softly: "I don't doubt your generosity, and I believe that as long as you make a request, you will be granted, but the premise is that you have to ask..."
The premise is that the servants have to ask!
Qin Ji's voice was very soft, but when she heard Yuan Gai Suwen's ears sound like Huang Zhong Dalu, how shrewd and wise this person was, she understood Qin Ji's meaning in an instant.
Although he has a big heart, he never cared about the thoughts of the house slaves.
Maybe when Qin Ji asked him to get rid of her slave status, he could make Qin Ji realize her dream as she wished, but the root cause is that it was not his initiative.
And what Qin Ji said just now meant that Gu Tianya was acting on his own initiative.
Sure enough, Qin Ji's gaze was like water, and she suddenly bowed to Gu Tianya, then turned her eyes to look at Yuan Gai Suwen, and explained softly: "Mr. Gu is different from you, he sympathizes with the suffering of us little people!"
Yuan Gai Suwen looked at Gu Tianya, and said in a thoughtful tone: "It is said that Lord Gu was born in a slightly cold family, and he must have experienced the painful days himself. It is precisely because Lord Gu has experienced suffering that he is able to breed love for you." Show sympathy."
He said with a wry smile, and said like self-deprecating: "And I, Yuan Gai Su Wen, was born rich and powerful, and my family is one of the five clans of Goguryeo. Since I was young, everyone respected me and feared me, so people like me, It is difficult to have the opportunity to experience the sorrow of the little people."
These words made Gu Tianya respectful, and said with admiration: "General Yuan Gai can say this, and he will be a good official who loves the people like a son in the future."
Yuan Gai Suwen was startled for a moment, and then realized that there was something in Gu Tianya's words, and immediately counterattacked and asked: "Lord Gu's words are somewhat ambiguous, Yuan Gai Suwen disagrees, you should explain which ethnic group I love the people like my son People? I became a good official and which country did I become an official?"
Gu Tianya smiled slightly, and said leisurely: "Since the general said this kind of counterattack, didn't he already guess what Gu was thinking?"
Yuan Gai Su Wen's eyes turned sharp, and he said with great solemnity: "I will never betray Goguryeo."
Gu Tianya still smiled slightly, and was noncommittal to this statement.
Obviously, the two of them are still exchanging words, and both inside and outside the words are suppressing each other's momentum.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the study was a little depressed.
Qin Ji is worthy of being a smart woman. Seeing this situation, she spoke up again, seemingly continuing to explain the reason for her betrayal, but actually helping the two break the deadlock.
I just heard the woman say quietly: "In fact, three years ago, it was not Mr. Gu who came to subdue the slave family in person, but a merchant who came to buy goods. By chance, he met the slave family on the street... ..."
"Coincidence?" Yuan Gai Suwen pondered, then smiled slightly: "I'm afraid the so-called coincidence is planned for a long time!"
Looking at Gu Tianya while speaking, he said with sarcasm: "Even that merchant is likely to be Lord Gu's confidant and secret spy. It seems that he came to Goguryeo to buy goods, but in fact he bought people from various families. For example, I, Yuan Gai Su Wen's Qin Ji was met by this merchant on the street by chance..."
What he said was extremely confident, as if he was sure that his guess was accurate, but Gu Tianya suddenly laughed, shook his head and said, "General Yuan Gai, you underestimated someone Gu. Let me tell you the truth, that merchant He is really not under my command, because he is not a Han Chinese."
Yuan Gai Su Wen was stunned.
There was obvious disbelief in his eyes, he turned his head to look at Qin Ji, and said solemnly: "Qin Ji, tell me, isn't that merchant really someone from Lord Gu?"
Qin Ji nodded slightly, and replied without hesitation: "Yes, General, that merchant has nothing to do with Mr. Gu, he is not the secret spy of the Gu family as you imagined at all."
Yuan Gai Suwen took a deep breath, and suddenly smiled wryly: "This really confuses me, the matter is completely beyond my guess. Since that merchant is not Lord Gu's, why did he help Lord Gu to buy you?" ?”
Unexpectedly, Qin Ji smiled sweetly, and said in a slightly mischievous and cute way: "The slave family didn't say that the merchant bought me just now."
Yuan Gai Su Wen was stunned again.
However, after Qin Ji played a naughty trick, her whole energy seemed to come alive. At this moment, she was full of the atmosphere that a lively girl should have.
The woman giggled and said again: "General Yuan Gai, you still don't understand the thoughts of our little people. Even though you are smart and wise, you don't understand the desire of the little people..."
When he said this, he looked at Gu Tianya subconsciously, his voice softened, his eyes were like water, and he whispered softly: "Why should we be deliberately bribed by humble servants like us? As long as we hear about freedom and hope, We ourselves will jump on it like moths to a flame.”
Yuan Gai Suwen looked at Qin Ji, and then at Gu Tianya. After a long time, the man said thoughtfully: "Freedom and hope? Pounce on it like moths to a flame? Listen to what you said, I seem to understand a little bit. It turns out that Lord Gu did not subdue you, but you took the initiative to serve him for your dream."
Qin Ji smiled softly, and said sweetly: "Yes, that's the reason."
She paused slightly as she spoke, as if she was caught in the memories of the past, her pretty face showed a lot of happiness, and she said softly: "That day, my family went to a musical instrument store in the city to buy strings. I want to buy that thing because my slave’s identity is Qin Ji... Hehe, I say it’s Qin Ji, but I’m actually a Qin Ji, and my duty is to play the piano for you, if you don’t do well, you’ve lost your duty.”
"So every time my family goes to buy strings, I feel trembling and anxious."
"I am afraid that the strings I selected are not good enough, and I am afraid that I will lose my identity as a Qin Ji. So every time I buy strings, I choose them with great care."
"If there are no accidents, maybe this is the only job I have to do well in my life. Pick the strings, practice the piano skills, and then serve in your study, playing the piano to please you while you are reviewing the documents."
Yuan Gai Su Wen suddenly interjected, and said jokingly: "This refers to the situation where there is no accident, so what you imply is that there is an accident in the language."
Qin Ji nodded, and said softly: "Yes, my family had an accident. That day I was choosing the strings carefully, when I suddenly heard someone arguing with the store manager. That person was the merchant, and he spoke in a good tone. Hard..."
Yuan Gai Suwen did not interrupt this time, but chose to listen with great interest.
I only heard Qin Ji recalling and said: "At that time, he pinched his waist with his hands and yelled loudly. He was very aggressive and full of confidence. He yelled at the shopkeeper: Damn, do you still think that I am a slave? I told you You, I am no longer a slave. Our Turkic Wild Wolf Department has joined the Youyun States. According to the laws of the state, private slaves are not allowed. Therefore, my original master can only obediently eliminate my slavery. "
Qin Ji paused while talking, her pretty face involuntarily showed longing, and murmured: "After that merchant finished speaking, he suddenly pointed his finger at his nose, and then yelled at the shopkeeper again, very arrogant He said again: "Fucking, show me clearly that I am now a civilian. I used to be a slave, and every time I came to buy goods, I would be bullied by you. At that time, I couldn't help myself. I don’t dare to contradict you, because at that time I was a slave sent by my master to do business. If I failed to complete the task, I would be punished by the master. But it’s different now. Now I’m a commoner with status! I’m not here to buy goods Who gave the task, but it belongs to my own business to earn money for myself. Do you understand my own business, which means that I am my own master... You stupid Goguryeo idiot, you dared to take me just now Treat it like a slave. Don’t buy it, I won’t buy your goods anymore. Fuck it, I’m so mad.”
This long speech, Qin Ji recounted everything without missing a word, obviously because the scene that day shocked her so much that she remembered all the businessman's yelling and scolding.
And also imitated vividly.
After Yuan Gai Suwen listened to this paragraph quietly, he let out a breath of emotion, and said softly with a thoughtful face on his face: "The change of status has given a former slave confidence, and he is no longer a slave. Kneeling, but daring to scold the shopkeeper..."
He looked at Qin Ji as he spoke, and said with deep meaning: "I think you must be deeply envious after seeing this scene. The merchant's identity was a slave, just like your Qin Ji's identity. He is a slave. However, once he got rid of his slave status, he immediately lived out his own integrity. And this kind of integrity will definitely make you envious."
